Glad you had good weather Chris, some great photos as well. Thank you for posting.
 
Stunning pictures Chris, HMS Norfolk really does look the bees knees at full speed..

for some reason I knew i'd seen that type of ship somewhere before....

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_23_frigate

it was the same Type 23 Frigate used in the James Bond film 'Tomorrow Never Dies'.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Westminster_(F237)

Westminster was used for the interior shots in the 1997 James Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies as three different (fictional) Type 23 frigates – HMS Chester, HMS Devonshire and HMS Bedford.[5] For the exterior shots HMS Somerset was used with some features added by model construction.
 
Nice to see these pics Chris, even for a land lubber like me.....
